joining mess is congressman john yarmouth from kentucky. as we listen to the wheeleders and they bring up the point that policy is shaped by such a small group of people, they're talking directly to you and your colleagues on capitol hill. what is your message to a family like the wheelers about what's taking place right now with this conversation? >> well, obviously my message to them is one of great sympathy and empathy, and respect, and i want them to continue to be a part of this drumbeat for action. as many of us has said, there's not going to be a legislative response unless there is this continued public outcry for action, and they're doing a great service to their country, as well as to the legacy of their children in stepping forward and being part of this. i think, as we saw on "the washington post" policy that was just today, almost unanimous support for some reasonable gun restrictions is pretty impressive. so i'm very hope up that we can use the -- this emotional and tragic episode to really make meaningful complex. >> as you k
